Appoligies for the amount of posts in one go earlier but i seem to keep 
getting caught in your filter and i thought it was notes so i tried 
thunderbird and it still stuck.

Anyhow I like the Text Endtext syntax, but could i ask that again we have 
this help text in a seperate file and include with MENU HELP <pathToHelp>

I know i seem anal about keeping things in seperate files and to be honest 
i am a bit i hate my menu files gettting cluttered with options and 
labels.

I think that the afore mentioned include would again be of the same 
benifit as seperating out the gfx cfg file.

Would it also be possible to tie text to the menu labels?
eg


LABEL latest
        MENU LABEL ^Latest Release
        KERNEL knl/vmlinuz-rhws44-x86
        APPEND initrd=img/initrd-rhws44-x86.img



@DESC latest
This is the latest Release of XXXX. Choose to install.
@END

Regards,
